Yeah, it's a pretty neat cavern. They're gypsum crystals. Putting air conditioning in there would be bad, bad, bad. Since the water's already receeding they're going to stop growing, but they also need heat if they want to continue to grow. Unfortunately, money comes first, and with tourism comes lots of cash.

Of course the caves are difficult to visit as the temperature is very high and the crystals will degrade unless the cave is allowed to be submerged again.
There goes any plan of living in a crystal cave.

Just use it as a temporary home base for your eeevil operations... you'll be the envy of the villainous world!
